Another weekend gone, yikes! In the spirit of relaxing Sunday, I stuck with a simple staple dinner that’s fast and easy to prepare – a tempeh stir fry. And I used the miso sauce from this tofu stir fry recipe. With chard, onion, orange bell pepper, and broccoli for the veggies – not a bad […]
Roasted Spicy Tempeh & Cauliflower
It’s been a wacky and stressful week to say the least with so much going on at work, rain, keeping up with workouts and half marathon training, and fighting off another bug going around. I’ve been trying to stick to simple, nutrient dense meals to combat this madness, like a loaded kale salad dressed with […]
Thai Tempeh Noodles
We’re only two days into the week and I’m ready for it to end already! Shorthanded at work with tons of projects and problems, tons of rain and wind adding bad hair to my stress, and another cold/flu thing running around that I don’t want to catch – sheesh! I guess I’ve been a little […]
Kamut Berries in a Casserole
At last year’s Raw Health Expo, I attended a great session on sources of protein for vegans and learned that eating a range of grains and beans is a better source for amino acids than meat. So I’ve been challenging myself to get more adventurous in trying a wide range of exotic grains this year […]
Spicy Tempeh
Blurg, Sunday night again. This weekend went by too fast! I jumped out of bed early this morning to enjoy coffee and a smoothie before dashing out on a 6-mile run. And just wow, the weather was perfect for it! Sunny, in the 50s, no wind, and not a cloud in the sky. Good thing […]
Tempeh Tots
It’s only Tuesday and the week is already filled with ups and downs! A downer is work has been nuts still, so much going on with system upgrades, start ups, etc. I’m glad to be busy and it makes the day fly by, but it’s draining when our department is shorthanded. And then there was […]
Scraping the Barrel for WIAW
Yay, tomorrow is Friday – oh wait, damn! For some reason I keep thinking today is Thursday, not Wednesday. After the crazy week it’s been, it just feels like the weekend should be closer and especially since it’s a 3 day weekend. Even Miko is looking a little worse for wear bundled in his bed […]
WIAW with Cauliflower Soup
Even though I said I probably wouldn’t do another half marathon this year, I registered for one yesterday for the end of April. I’m a sucker, but I couldn’t resist when I got a company email looking for employees to join a newly created running team and run this half to raise money for a […]
Noodle Tempeh Stir Fry
Now I remember why I’ve been holding off for so long on replacing my car – car shopping is a pain in the rear! I’m spoiled by having a reliable car that’s been paid off for over 7 years. But browsing the prices, payments, insurance costs, etc. on a new car is frustrating after so […]
Tahini Tempeh Stir Fry
TGIF! At least I hope, I’m on call this weekend and after this busy week, I’m keeping my fingers crossed things are quiet. The weather is anything but quiet, the wind is howling over our roof as I type with gusts up to 60 MPH and sideways rain. The most challenging thing about this weather, […]
